Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 10 (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/2
He is making his debut and has shown decent work at home. He is a type that can be coltish and we are hoping that he behaves on the day. This outing will bring him on nicely for future races. If not too green, he is capable of finishing in the first three.

Race 1 – 12:00
1160m – Piere Strydom 5600 Winners & Counting Maiden Juvenile Plate
7 – Umzingeli Wenyathi
Breeding: Buffalo Bill Cody (IRE) – Risk All by Captain Al
Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Piere Strydom
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 11 (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/2
He has produced three decent races to date. He jumps on the outside of the track which is a big plus on the Turffontein straight course. Piere Strydom phoned for the ride which is encouraging. Queensland looks to be the horse to beat after her encouraging debut. However, we are hoping to see the son of Buffalo Bill Cody in the winner’s enclosure.
Winning Form Comment: Entered the frame in all three runs. Obvious threat.

Race 4 – 13:45
1000m – London News – Strydom’s 1996 Durban July Triumph MR 84 Handicap
1 – Dontshootthebarman
Breeding: Visionaire (USA) – Aquila Jet by Jet Master
Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Raymond Danielson
Wgt: 63.5kg
Draw: 2 (13 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1
He is doing well at home and is in a good space. Rafa Bay, who won a good race last time, looks to be the horse to beat. He does carry a big weight of 63.5kgs and is drawn on the inside of the track. Winning Form-sponsored Jockey Raymond Danielson retains the ride, and we are hoping for a big effort.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:92. Is 3.5kgs better off at the weights with number 4 on latest.
